Designation/Position- Research Associate at IIT Kharagpur

The Indian Institute of Technology, Kharagpur, India, invites suitable and interested candidates to apply for the position of Research Associate at IIT Kharagpur.

Around- The motto of IIT Kharagpur is ‘Yogah Karmasu Kaushalam’. Literally translated, this means ‘Excellence in action is yoga’, which essentially means that doing one’s work well is (true) yoga. This can be traced back to Sri Krishna’s conversation with Arjuna in the Bhagavad Gita. The quote in the larger context of the Gita urges man to attain equanimity because an equanimous mind enables a person to shake off distracting thoughts about the effects of his actions and focus on the task at hand. Equanimity is the source of perfection in karmic endeavours leading to salvation. Research Associate at IIT Kharagpur
